Myanmar Day 5 – Images by Art Wolfe

It was a full day of shooting at Myanmar’s broad and shallow Inle Lake. We took full advantage of the amazing light conditions to silhouette the fishermen and their pyramidal nets. We also were able to photograph a few Kayan (or Karen) women, particularly notable because of their elegant brass neck coils.

Maynmar’s bustling port city of Yangon is a gritty and fascinating subject: unending lines of laborers offloading commodities, the lines of brightly painted boats ferrying people to & fro, the smell of sweat and frying foods. It is a very visceral experience.

Detour to Jakarta – Images by Art Wolfe

One of my goals has been to photograph at the national mosque in Jakarta, the Masjid Istiqlal. So after spending many days at the Hindu Kumbh Mela, I flew off to Indonesia. This is the largest mosque in Southeast Asia and the grand domes prayer hall is a sight to behold, especially during prayers, when it is full to capacity.
